DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The present disclosure may be understood by referring to the following description and the appended drawings. In addition, the number and the size of each component in the drawings merely serves as an example, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Furthermore, similar and/or corresponding numerals may be used in different embodiments for describing some embodiments simply and clearly, but not represent any relationship between different embodiment and/or structures discussed below.

Certain terms may be used throughout the present disclosure and the appended claims to refer to particular elements. Those skilled in the art will understand that electronic device manufacturers may refer to the same components by different names. The present specification is not intended to distinguish between components that have the same function but different names. In the following specification and claims, the words “including”, “comprising”, “having” and the like are open words, so they should be interpreted as meaning “including but not limited to . . . ”. Therefore, when terms “including”, “comprising”, and/or “having” are used in the description of the disclosure, the presence of corresponding features, regions, steps, operations and/or components is specified without excluding the presence of one or more other features, regions, steps, operations and/or components.

In addition, in this specification, relative expressions may be used. For example, “lower”, “bottom”, “higher” or “top” are used to describe the position of one element relative to another. It should be noted that if a device is flipped upside down, an element that is “lower” will become an element that is “higher”.

When a corresponding component (such as a film layer or region) is referred to as “on another component”, it may be directly on another component, or there may be other components in between. On the other hand, when a component is referred “directly on another component”, there is no component between the former two. In addition, when a component is referred “on another component”, the two components have an up-down relationship in the top view, and this component can be above or below the other component, and this up-down relationship depends on the orientation of the device.

The terms “about” or “substantially” are generally interpreted as within 20% of a given value or range, or as interpreted as within 10%, 5%, 3%, 2%, 1%, or 0.5% of a given value or range.

It should be understood that, although the terms “first”, “second” etc. may be used herein to describe various elements, regions, layers and/or portions, and these elements, regions, layers, and/or portions should not be limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish one element, component, region, layer, or portion. Thus, a first element, component, region, layer or portion discussed below could be termed a second element, component, region, layer or portion without departing from the teachings of some embodiments of the present disclosure. In addition, for the sake of brevity, terms such as “first” and “second” may not be used in the description to distinguish different elements. As long as it does not depart from the scope defined by the appended claims, the first element and/or the second element described in the appended claims can be interpreted as any element that meets the description in the specification.

In the present disclosure, the thickness, length, and width can be measured by using an optical microscope, and the thickness can be measured by the cross-sectional image in the electron microscope, but it is not limited thereto. In addition, a certain error may be present in a comparison with any two values or directions. If the first value is equal to or same with the second value, it implies that an error of about 10% between the first value and the second value may be present. If the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction, the angle between the first direction and the second direction may be between 80 degrees and 100 degrees. If the first direction is parallel to the second direction, the angle between the first direction and the second direction may be between 0 degrees and 10 degrees.

It should be noted that the technical solutions provided by different embodiments below may be interchangeable, combined or mixed to form another embodiment without departing from the spirit of the present disclosure.

Unless defined otherwise, all terms (including technical and scientific terms) used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this disclosure belongs. It should be appreciated that, in each case, the term, which is defined in a commonly used dictionary, should be interpreted as having a meaning that conforms to the relative skills of the present disclosure and the background or the context of the present disclosure, and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal manner unless so defined in the present disclosure. It should be noted that the description “a first feature is/may be disposed on a second feature” herein may include embodiments in which the first feature and the second feature are disposed in direct contact, and may also include embodiments in which additional features may be disposed between the first feature and the second feature, such that the first feature and the second feature may not be in direct contact.
